after running:
sa-update --channel updates.spamassassin.org
and, reading:
% man spamassassin
Default configuration data is loaded from the first existing
directory
in:
/usr/local/spamassassin/var/spamassassin/3.001007
/var/MailServer/Conf
starting a clean build where my init dir contains only:
% ls -1R /var/SA
Local/
rules_du_jour.conf
sa-update-channels.txt
./Local:
ImageInfo.pm
init.pre
local.c
following up with actual tests of each of the aforementioned cases:
(a) *not* define --updatedir
(b) define --updatedir=$DATADIR
(c) define --updatedir=$CONFDIR
(d) define --updatedir=$somewhereelse
for an sa-update run, given my build config of:
perl Makefile.PL \
PREFIX=/u
, should I:
(a) *not* define --updatedir
(b) define --updatedir=$DATADIR
(c) define --updatedir=$CONFDIR
(d) define --updatedir=$somewhereelse
in other words, where _should_ the updates now go?

hi all,
question: what's this list's policy for sending attachments to the list ?
i'm noticing, e.g., *.pl scripts as attachments ... rather than links to
posts at code-paste sites.
iiuc, in general attachments are 'bad form', but given that the list-mgr
is NOT apparently blocking them , it tho
if there's a certain class 'surprises'.
namely, those
that fire off errors on --lint when we're told/asked to "check with --lint".
but now that i know, i no longer care! ;-)
cheers,
richard

that's what i'd presumed, if not legitimately understood.
i'm not yet certain, but i that
"/usr/local/spamassassin/var/spamassassin/3.002000" has me
suspicious ... why's it there? is that a sa-update creation?
if so, why's sa-
an
auto-detect", but
that's not to say that "stuff" shouldn't work with legit SA options; namely, to
use
DATADIR/CONFDIR of our spec/choosing.

I think, but I'm not sure, that I have run into situations where just

When working with svn trunk it is a good idea every so often to

I didn't notice when it happened.

I looked at the source code in spamd. I had not read the man page

and if so, did you give it a home directory?
no, purposefully.
See the man doc on the -H option, which might do what you need and also
explains a reason for needing a home directory even without reading user

i'd tried setting an alternative directory for any given use
